  • m
    there's just no content in the left-hand menu
  • i
    that's a bug, the button shouldn't be there until you add the block_editor field
  • i
    it's there because you said you wanted to use blocks, but since the form field is not added by default, it does not really make sense
  • i
    we should just publish the form view with the block editor field enabled
  • m
    ah I see, adding the field adds those default ones in now
  • m
    do those default blocks not come with default previews then?
  • i
    no, that's where twill stops dictating how your frontend is being built. That preview could be a blade file, but it could also be an iframe previewing an SPA or SSG site
  • i
    now, I hear you, we could have a sensible default to avoid the error, but the error is also there to help you take control
  • m
    gotcha
  • m
    when using the kalnoy/nestedset package with a Page-style module, do I use the Browser field to handle the parent/child relationships?
  • m
    https://twill.io/docs/#architecture-concepts mentions this but really doesn't go into any detail
  • i
    no, there's going to be a field for that in the right sidebar
  • m
    ah
  • m
    I installed the package and added its trait to my model but don't see that field
  • i
  • m
    that link doesn't resolve
  • m
    just goes to the preface
  • m
    oh I see
  • m
    last section under CRUD
  • i
    we're going to change this too, anchors are not doing a great job. We're moving to separate page instead of this huge scrolling page.
  • m
    yeah separate pages would be good
  • i
    it does scroll down for you if you give it a second though
  • m
    for some reason it stripped the anchor out completely
  • m
    I waited a bit
  • m
    I think it's cause I clicked the preview title not the actual link
  • m
    I still don't see the field
  • i
    ok I see a step missing from the docs, the controller's formData needs to return a collection of parents. FYI this has been shared in this format because we wanted to share it as early as possible but all that code is all going to be moved in Twill so that you don't have to do it manually
  • m
    so how do I do this manually?
  • m
    override formData method and do I put the parents in a 'parents' key inside the array returned by formData?
  • m
    select all from parent relationship method?
